Congrats to Steve Doyle tonight, flipping the assembly seat of the exiting and execrable Mike Heubsch, the current SoA that is defying the court order keeping the Capitol open. Also same district as Dan Kapanake, under recall. Good riddance to both.

Thanks, Freeman. Those guys are all adopted now to great homes. The white one in the front now lives with two guys who have a condo right on the sand in Playa Del Rey, CA. I mean they step out of their living room right onto the sand. Proverbial lucky dog.

I know animal videos are pretty cliche', but I just saw this today and it's hilarious. One of those things where you say: I wish I'd thought of that, because it's really easy, but great.

That's the Pakistan Military Academy there... just a short little walk off from the bin-Laden compound. At first I thought the P.M.A. was just a local thingy. But no, it's the military training institute for all of Pakistan-- it's their West Point.

Pakistan was clearly harboring bin-Laden.

But surely Pakistan would fear mighty America should we find out whom they were accommodating, right?

So there's only one conclusion: We've known bin-Laden has been there, at that compound, for years. Bush knew. Cheney knew. Obama knew. And now, just about one month (on the dot!) after he launches his 2012 campaign, Obama finally okays the killing of the world's most wanted bad guy.

It's the best kickstart to his campaign that Obama could possibly get. And one that was badly needed.

Lem, try Allegra-D. The pseudoephedrine takes a little getting used to, but it's the only thing I've tried that stops the headaches and shrinks my tonsils. Wal-mart only lets you buy 10 days supply at a time, since it's an ingredient in crystal meth.

With a projectile dildo, er...toy like that, 6 y.o. boys will be accused of rape.

It's the best kickstart to his campaign that Obama could possibly get.

Is "kickstart" the right word here? I mean, what's he planning to do for an encore? Cure cancer and then fuck Scarlet Johanssen on top of Quadaffi's shallow grave? Admittedly I'd probably vote for him if he pulled that one off.

I assume he'll get a poll bounce out of this, although I doubt it'll be much of one -- I mean, thanks for killing bin Laden and all, but the economy still sucks a golf ball through a garden hose. Will that bounce last 18 months? That'd be a "no".

Sixteen-year-old Daniel Alvi, one of those who regularly played soccer and cricket in the field in front of the [Bin Laden] compound, said he daily saw a man in a red Suzuki van drive into the compound with a live goat, while the milkman only delivered outside the security gate and never rang the doorbell.

Somebody is going to surface saying that he told people Bin Laden was there and nobody believe it.

Word is that the name of Osama's currier was going or has already popped up in a Wikileaks dump and the CIA was afraid that Bin Laden would find out we knew about his trusted currier and subsequently would give us the slip again.
